.SH "NAME"

\fBdacs_conf\fR [\fI\m[blue]\fBdacsoptions\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This program is part of the
\fBDACS\fR
suite\&.
.PP
The
\fBdacs_conf\fR
web service processes and displays
\fBDACS\fR
configuration files (see
\m[blue]\fBdacs\&.conf(5)\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[2]\d\s+2)\&.
.PP
If XML output is selected, a document conforming to
\m[blue]\fBdacs_conf_reply\&.dtd\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[3]\d\s+2
is returned\&.
.PP
Although the order in which clauses appear in configuration files can be important, the order of configuration directives is for the most part not significant\&. The exception is the
\m[blue]\fBEVAL\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[4]\d\s+2
directive\&. These directives are listed in the order in which they would be evaluated, and their
\fIunevaluated\fR
values appear in the output\&.

This program is also available as a
\fBDACS\fR
utility,
\m[blue]\fBdacsconf(1)\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[5]\d\s+2\&. Because
\m[blue]\fBdacs_admin(8)\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[6]\d\s+2
provides the same functionality and more,
\fBdacs_conf\fR
may be removed in a future release\&.

Because the configuration details that are displayed could be taken advantage of by an attacker, the default
\fBDACS\fR
ACL restricts use of this web service to a DACS administrator\&.

.SH "OPTIONS"
.SS "Web Service Arguments"
.PP
In addition to the
\m[blue]\fBstandard CGI arguments\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[7]\d\s+2,
\fBdacs_conf\fR
understands the following CGI arguments:
.PP
\fIDIRECTIVE\fR
.RS 4
This optional, repeatable argument is a comma\-separated list of directive names or variable references to be displayed\&. This is similar to the
\fIdirective\-name\fR
arguments to
\m[blue]\fBdacsconf(1)\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[5]\d\s+2\&.
.sp
An example of a directive name is
JURISDICTION_NAME\&. An example of a variable reference is
\fI${Conf::jurisdiction_name:i}\fR\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIVARS\fR
.RS 4
If the value of this optional argument is "yes", the effect on output formatting is the same as when the
\fB\-vars\fR
flag is give to
\m[blue]\fBdacsconf(1)\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[5]\d\s+2\&. The default value is "no"\&.
.RE
.SH "FILES"
.PP
\m[blue]\fBconf\&.css\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[8]\d\s+2
.SH "DIAGNOSTICS"
.PP
The program exits
0
if everything was fine,
1
if an error occurred\&.
.SH "BUGS"
.PP
The
JSON
output flavour (\fIFORMAT\fR) is not implemented\&.
